RISK FACTORS
An investment in our securities involves risks. You should carefully consider the risks described herein and those described under “Risk Factors” in Part I, Item IA of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2017 and under “Risk Factors” in Part II, Item IA of our Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for
the quarter ended September 30, 2018, as well as all other information contained or incorporated by reference into this prospectus supplement, before making an investment decision. Our business, results of operations, cash flows and financial condition could be materially adversely affected by any of these risks. The market or trading price of our securities could decline due to any of these risks. In addition, please read “Special Note About Forward-Looking Statements” in this prospectus supplement, where we describe additional uncertainties associated with our business and the forward-looking statements included or incorporated by reference in this prospectus supplement. Please note that additional risks not presently known to us or that we currently deem immaterial may also impair our business and operations.
Additional Risks Relating to this Offering
A substantial number of shares of common stock may be sold in the market following this offering, which may depress the market price for our common stock.
The shares of common stock sold in this offering may be resold in the public market at any time. Under our amended and restated certificate of incorporation, we are authorized to issue up to 250 million shares of common stock, of which 93,455,113 shares of common stock were outstanding as of November 30, 2018. Of these shares, 89,936,697 shares have previously been sold to the public in registered public offerings and are freely transferable without restriction or further registration under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”) by persons other than “affiliates”, as that term is defined in Rule 144 under the Securities Act. On December 11, 2018, we registered 10,835,145 shares of our common stock, including the shares being offered in this offering, with the SEC on a resale registration statement of which this prospectus supplement is a part. In addition, certain shares of our common stock that are currently outstanding but the sale of which has not been registered for resale may currently be sold under Rule 144 under the Securities Act. Sales of a substantial number of these shares in the public market following this offering, or the perception that those sales may occur, could cause the market price of our common stock to decline.
We may sell additional equity or debt securities to fund our operations, which may result in dilution to our stockholders and impose restrictions on our business.
In order to raise additional funds to support our operations, we may sell additional equity or debt securities, which would result in dilution to all of our stockholders or impose restrictive covenants that adversely impact our business. Public or private financing may not be available in amounts or on terms acceptable to us, if at all. The incurrence of indebtedness would result in increased fixed payment obligations and could also result in restrictive covenants, such as limitations on our ability to incur additional debt and certain operating restrictions that could adversely impact our ability to conduct our business. If we are unable to expand our operations or otherwise capitalize on our business opportunities, our business, financial condition and results of operations could be materially adversely affected.
We have a substantial amount of indebtedness. This level of indebtedness could adversely affect our flexibility in operating our business and our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry.
On June 25, 2018, we entered into a second amendment to our senior secured credit facility, which now provides for $105 million in a senior secured term loan facility and a $75 million revolving credit facility. We currently have approximately $98 million of indebtedness outstanding under the senior secured term loan facility, zero outstanding under the revolving credit facility and approximately $72 million of available borrowing capacity under our revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility allows for additional borrowings as long as the debt to Adjusted EBITDA ratio remains below 4.0:1.0 for the quarters ending December 31, 2018 and March 31, 2019 and 3.75:1.0 for the quarters ending June 30, 2019 and September 30, 2019, and as specified in the credit agreement
S-3
for future periods. Our substantial indebtedness could have significant consequences for our business and financial condition. For example:
• |
We could be required to dedicate a greater percentage of our cash flows to payments on our debt, thereby reducing the availability of cash flow to fund capital expenditures, pursue other acquisitions or investments in new technologies, make stock repurchases and fund other general corporate purposes. If we fail to meet our payment obligations or otherwise fail to comply with the covenants in our debt, including failure as a result of events beyond our control, it could result in an event of default on our debt. Upon an event of default, the lenders of that debt could elect to cause all amounts outstanding with respect to that debt to become immediately due and payable and we would be unable to access our revolving credit facility. Our debt imposes operating and financial covenants and restrictions on us, and compliance with such covenants and restrictions may adversely affect our ability to adequately finance our operations or capital needs, pursue attractive business opportunities that may arise, redeem or repurchase capital stock, pay dividends, sell assets, and make capital expenditures. |
• |
We may experience increased vulnerability to general adverse economic conditions, including increases in interest rates for those borrowings that bear interest at variable rates or if such indebtedness is refinanced at a time when interest rates are higher. |
• |
We may experience limited flexibility in planning for, or reacting to, changes in or challenges relating to our businesses and industry, creating competitive disadvantages compared to other competitors with lower debt levels and borrowing costs. |
We cannot assure you that cash flows, combined with additional borrowings under the revolving credit facility or any future credit facility, will be available in an amount sufficient to enable us to repay our indebtedness, or to fund other liquidity needs.
In addition, we may incur substantial additional indebtedness in the future, which could cause the related risks to intensify. We may need to refinance all or a portion of our indebtedness on or before their respective maturities. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness on commercially reasonable terms or at all. If we are unable to refinance our debt, we may default under the terms of our indebtedness, which could lead to an acceleration of the debt. We do not expect that we could repay all of our outstanding indebtedness if the repayment of such indebtedness was accelerated.

We have never declared or paid cash dividends on our common stock. We intend to retain all future earnings to finance operations and future growth and therefore we do not anticipate paying any cash dividends in the foreseeable future. Our financing arrangements contain certain restrictions on our ability to pay dividends on our common stock.

MATERIAL U.S. FEDERAL INCOME AND ESTATE TAX CONSIDERATIONS
FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS
FOR NON-U.S. HOLDERS
The following discussion summarizes the material U.S. federal income and estate tax considerations relating to the acquisition, ownership and disposition of our common stock purchased in this offering by a non-U.S. holder (as defined below). This discussion is based on the provisions of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, or the Code, final, temporary and proposed U.S. Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder and current administrative rulings and judicial decisions, all as in effect as of the date hereof. All of these authorities may be subject to differing interpretations or repealed, revoked or modified, possibly with retroactive effect, which could materially alter the tax consequences to non-U.S. holders described in this prospectus supplement.
There can be no assurance that the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”) will not take a contrary position to the tax consequences described herein or that such position will not be sustained by a court. No ruling from the IRS has been obtained with respect to the U.S. federal income or estate tax consequences to a non-U.S. holder of the purchase, ownership or disposition of our common stock.
This discussion is for general information only and is not tax advice. All prospective non-U.S. holders of our common stock should consult their own tax advisors with respect to the U.S. federal, state, local and non-U.S. tax consequences of the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock.
As used in this discussion, a “non-U.S. holder” is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a beneficial owner of our common stock that is not a U.S. holder. A “U.S. holder” means a beneficial owner of our common stock that is, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, (a) an individual who is a citizen or resident of the United States, (b) a corporation or other entity treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes created or organized in or under the laws of the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia, (c) an estate the income of which is subject to U.S. federal income taxation regardless of its source, or (d) a trust if it (1) is subject to the primary supervision of a court within the United States and one or more “United States persons” (within the meaning of the Code) have the authority to control all substantial decisions of the trust or (2) has a valid election in effect under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations to be treated as a United States person.
An individual may be treated, for U.S. federal income tax purposes, as a resident of the United States in any calendar year by being present in the United States on at least 31 days in that calendar year and for an aggregate of at least 183 days during a three-year period ending in that calendar year. The 183-day test is determined by counting all of the days the individual is treated as being present in the current year, one-third of such days in the immediately preceding year and one-sixth of such days in the second preceding year. Residents of the United States are subject to U.S. federal income tax as if they were U.S. citizens.
This discussion assumes that a prospective non-U.S. holder will hold shares of our common stock as a capital asset within the meaning of the Code (generally, property held for investment). This discussion does not address all aspects of U.S. federal income and estate taxation that may be relevant to a particular non-U.S. holder in light of that non-U.S. holder’s individual circumstances. In addition, this discussion does not address any aspect of the U.S. federal alternative minimum tax, the Medicare contribution tax, U.S. state or local or non-U.S. taxes, or the special tax rules applicable to particular non-U.S. holders, such as:
• |
insurance companies and financial institutions; |
• |
tax-exempt organizations; |
• |
pension plans; |
• |
controlled foreign corporations; |
• |
passive foreign investment companies; |
• |
brokers and dealers in securities |
• |
persons that hold our common stock as part of a straddle, conversion transaction, or other integrated investment; and |
• |
former citizens or residents of the United States subject to tax as expatriates. |
If a partnership or other entity treated as a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes is an owner of our common stock, the treatment of a partner in the partnership generally will depend on the status of the partner and the activities of the partnership. We urge any owner of our common stock that is a partnership and partners in that partnership to consult their tax advisors regarding the U.S. federal income and estate tax consequences of purchasing, owning and disposing of our common stock.
S-8
Distributions on Our Common Stock
Any distribution on our common stock paid to non-U.S. holders will generally constitute a dividend for U.S. federal income tax purposes to the extent paid from our current or accumulated earnings and profits, as determined under U.S. federal income tax principles. Distributions in excess of our current and accumulated earnings and profits will generally constitute a return of capital to the extent of the non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis in our common stock, and will be applied against and reduce the non-U.S. holder’s adjusted tax basis. Any remaining excess will be treated as capital gain, subject to the tax treatment described below in “Gain on Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Our Common Stock.”
Subject to the discussions below regarding backup withholding and the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder that are not treated as effectively connected with the non-U.S. holder’s conduct of a trade or business in the United States generally will be subject to withholding of U.S. federal income tax at a rate of 30% on the gross amount paid, unless the non-U.S. holder is entitled to an exemption from or reduced rate of withholding under an applicable income tax treaty. In order to claim the benefit of an income tax treaty, a non-U.S. holder must provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable (or successor form to either), certifying under penalties of perjury that such non-U.S. holder is entitled to benefits under the applicable income tax treaty and has complied with any special certification requirements prior to the payment of dividends. A non-U.S. holder eligible for a reduced rate of withholding pursuant to an income tax treaty may be eligible to obtain a refund of any excess amounts withheld by timely filing an appropriate claim for a refund with the IRS. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding possible entitlements to benefits under any income tax treaty.
Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder that are treated as effectively connected with a trade or business conducted by the non-U.S. holder within the United States (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so provides, are also attributable to a permanent establishment or a fixed base maintained within the United States by the non-U.S. holder) are generally exempt from the 30% withholding tax. To establish the exemption, a non-U.S. holder must provide a properly executed IRS Form W-8ECI (or successor form) prior to the payment of the dividend. Dividends received by a non-U.S. holder that are treated as effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business generally are subject to U.S. federal income tax at rates applicable to U.S. persons. A non-U.S. holder that is a corporation may, under certain circumstances, be subject to an additional “branch profits tax” imposed at a rate of 30%, or such lower rate as specified by an applicable income tax treaty between the United States and such non-U.S. holder’s country of residence.
Gain On Sale, Exchange or Other Disposition of Our Common Stock
Subject to the discussions below regarding backup withholding and the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, a non-U.S. holder will generally not be subject to any U.S. federal income tax or withholding on any gain realized from the non-U.S. holder’s sale, exchange or other disposition of shares of our common stock unless:
• |
the gain is effectively connected with a U.S. trade or business (and, if an applicable income tax treaty so provides, is also attributable to a permanent establishment or a fixed base maintained within the United States by the non-U.S. holder), in which case the gain will be taxed on a net-income basis, generally in the same manner as if the non-U.S. holder were a U.S. person, and, if the non-U.S. holder is a corporation, the additional branch profits tax described above in “Distributions on Our Common Stock” may also apply; |
• |
the non-U.S. holder is an individual who is present in the United States for 183 days or more in the taxable year of the disposition and certain other conditions are met, in which case the non-U.S. holder will be subject to a 30% tax on the net gain derived from the disposition, which may be offset by U.S.-source capital losses of the non-U.S. holder, if any; or |
• |
we are, or have been at any time during the five-year period preceding such disposition (or the non-U.S. holder’s holding period, if shorter), a “United States real property holding corporation” under Section 897 of the Code. |
Generally, we will be a “United States real property holding corporation” (“USRPHC”) if the fair market value of our U.S. real property interests equals or exceeds 50% of the sum of the fair market values of our worldwide real property interests and other assets used or held for use in a trade or business, all as determined under applicable U.S. Treasury regulations. We believe that we have not been and are not currently, and do not anticipate becoming in the future, a USRPHC for U.S. federal income tax purposes. However, because the determination of whether we are a USRPHC depends on the fair market value of our United States real property relative to the fair market value of our other business assets, there can be no assurance that we will not
S-9
become a USRPHC in the future. Even if we become a USRPHC, however, as long as our common stock is regularly traded on an established securities market, such common stock will be treated as a United States real property interest only if a non-U.S. holder actually or constructively holds more than five percent of such regularly traded common stock at any time during the shorter of the five-year period ending on the date of the sale or other taxable disposition and the non-U.S. holder's holding period.
Information Reporting and Backup Withholding
The applicable withholding agent must report annually to the IRS and to each non-U.S. holder the amount of distributions paid to such non-U.S.holder and the amount of tax withheld, if any. Copies of the information returns filed with the IRS to report the distributions and withholding may also be made available to the tax authorities in a country in which the non-U.S. holder is a resident under the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty or agreement.
The United States imposes backup withholding, currently at a rate of 24%, on the gross amount of dividends and certain other types of payments. Dividends paid to a non-U.S. holder will not be subject to backup withholding if proper certification of foreign status (usually on IRS Form W-8BEN or W-8BEN-E, as applicable) is provided, and the payor does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that the non-U.S. holder is a U.S. person. In addition, no backup withholding or information reporting will be required regarding the proceeds of a disposition of our common stock made by a non-U.S. holder within the United States or conducted through certain U.S. financial intermediaries if the payor receives the certification of foreign status described in the preceding sentence and does not have actual knowledge or reason to know that such non-U.S. holder is a U.S. person or the non-U.S. holder otherwise establishes an exemption. Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the application of the information reporting and backup withholding rules to them.
Backup withholding is not an additional tax. Rather, amounts withheld under the backup withholding rules from a payment to a non-U.S. holder can be refunded or credited against the non-U.S. holder’s U.S. federal income tax liability, if any, provided that certain required information is furnished to the IRS in a timely manner.
U.S. Federal Estate Tax
An individual non-U.S. holder who is treated as the owner, or who has made certain lifetime transfers, of an interest in our common stock will be required to include the value of the common stock in his or her gross estate for U.S. federal estate tax purposes and may be subject to U.S. federal estate tax, unless an applicable estate or other tax treaty provides otherwise.
Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act
In addition to the withholding described above, legislation enacted in 2010, known as the Foreign Account Tax Compliance Act, or FATCA, imposes a 30% withholding tax on dividend payments made by a U.S. person to a foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity (including, in some cases, when a foreign financial institution or nonfinancial foreign entity is acting as an intermediary), and on the gross proceeds received by a foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity as a result of a sale or other disposition of shares of stock issued by a U.S. person (on or after January 1, 2019), unless (i) in the case of a foreign financial institution, such institution enters into (or is deemed to have entered into) an agreement with the U.S. Treasury Department to withhold on certain payments, and to collect and provide to the U.S. Treasury Department substantial information regarding U.S. account holders of such institution (which includes certain equity and debt holders of such institution, as well as certain account holders that are foreign entities with U.S. owners), (ii) in the case of a non-financial foreign entity, such entity provides the withholding agent with a certification identifying the direct and indirect substantial U.S. owners of the entity, or (iii) the foreign financial institution or non-financial foreign entity otherwise qualifies for an exemption from these rules. An intergovernmental agreement between the United States and an applicable foreign country may modify these requirements.
Non-U.S. holders should consult their tax advisors regarding the possible implications of FATCA to them in connection with the purchase, ownership and disposition of our common stock.

UNDERWRITER
Subject to the terms and conditions set forth in the underwriting agreement, dated December 11, 2018, among us, Morgan Stanley & Co. LLC, as underwriter, and the selling stockholder, the selling stockholder has agreed to sell to the underwriter, and the underwriter has agreed to purchase from the selling stockholder 10,835,145 shares of common stock.
The underwriting agreement provides that the obligations of the underwriter are subject to certain conditions precedent such as the receipt by the underwriter of officers’ certificates and legal opinions and approval of certain legal matters by its counsel. The underwriting agreement provides that the underwriter will purchase all of the shares of common stock if any of them are purchased. If the underwriter defaults, the underwriting agreement provides that the underwriting agreement may be terminated. We and the selling stockholder have agreed to indemnify the underwriter and certain of its controlling persons against certain liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, and to contribute to payments that the underwriter may be required to make in respect of those liabilities.
The underwriter has advised us that, following the completion of this offering, it currently intends to make a market in the common stock as permitted by applicable laws and regulations. However, the underwriter is not obligated to do so, and the underwriter may discontinue any market-making activities at any time without notice in its sole discretion. Accordingly, no assurance can be given as to the liquidity of the trading market for the common stock, that you will be able to sell any of the common stock held by you at a particular time or that the prices that you receive when you sell will be favorable.
The underwriter is offering the shares of common stock subject to its acceptance of the shares of common stock from the selling stockholder and subject to prior sale. The underwriter reserves the right to withdraw, cancel or modify offers to the public and to reject orders in whole or in part. In addition, the underwriter has advised us that it does not intend to confirm sales to any account over which it exercises discretionary authority.
Commissions and Discounts
The underwriter has agreed to purchase the shares of our common stock from the selling stockholder at a price
of $12.00 per share, which will result in $130,021,740 of proceeds to the selling stockholder. The underwriter proposes to offer the shares of common stock for sale from time to time in one or more transactions on the NASDAQ Capital Market, in the over-the-counter market, through negotiated transactions or otherwise at market prices prevailing at the time of sale, at prices related to prevailing market prices or at negotiated prices, subject to receipt and acceptance by it and subject to its right to reject any order in whole or in part. In connection with the sale of the shares of common stock offered hereby, the underwriter may be deemed to have received compensation in the form of underwriting discounts. The underwriter may effect such transactions by selling the shares of common stock to or through dealers, and such dealers may receive compensation in the form of discounts, concessions or commissions from the underwriter and/or purchasers of shares of common stock for whom it acts as agents or to whom it sells as principal.
We estimate expenses payable by us in connection with this offering, including expenses incurred by the selling stockholder will be approximately $143,503. We also have agreed to reimburse the underwriter for the FINRA counsel fee, if any. In accordance with FINRA Rule 5110, this reimbursed fee, if any is deemed underwriting compensation for this offering.
No Sales of Similar Securities
We, and the selling stockholder have agreed not to sell or transfer any common stock or securities
convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for common stock, for 90 days after the date of this prospectus
supplement, and our executive officers and directors have agreed not to sell or transfer any common stock or securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for common stock, for 75 days after the date of this prospectus supplement, without first obtaining the written consent of the underwriter. Specifically, we and these other persons have agreed, with certain limited exceptions, not to directly or indirectly:
• |
offer, pledge, sell or contract to sell any common stock; |
• |
sell any option or contract to purchase any common stock; |
• |
purchase any option or contract to sell any common stock; |
• |
grant any option, right or warrant for the sale of any common stock; |
• |
otherwise dispose of or transfer any common stock; |
S-11
• |
request or demand that we file a registration statement related to the common stock; or |
• |
enter into any swap or other agreement or any transaction that transfers, in whole or in part, the economic consequence of ownership of any common stock, whether any such swap, agreement or transaction is to be settled by delivery of shares or other securities, in cash or otherwise. |
This lock-up provision applies to common stock and to securities convertible into or exchangeable or exercisable for common stock. It also applies to common stock owned now or acquired later by the person executing the agreement or for which the person executing the agreement later acquires the power of disposition. This lock-up provision does not prevent any person from establishing a trading plan that complies with Rule 10b5-1 under the Exchange Act or from amending such plan so long as there are no sales of common stock under such trading plan during the lock-up period.
NASDAQ Capital Market Listing
Our common stock is listed on the NASDAQ Capital Market under the symbol “NEO.”
Price Stabilization, Short Positions and Penalty Bids
The underwriter has advised us that, pursuant to Regulation M under the Exchange Act, certain persons participating in the offering may engage in short sale transactions, stabilizing transactions, syndicate covering transactions or the imposition of penalty bids in connection with this offering. These activities may have the effect of stabilizing or maintaining the market price of the common stock at a level above that which might otherwise prevail in the open market. Establishing short sales positions may involve “naked” short sales.
“Naked” short sales are sales made without the option to purchase additional shares of our common stock. The underwriter must close out any naked short position by purchasing shares in the open market. A naked short position is more likely to be created if the underwriter is concerned that there may be downward pressure on the price of shares in the open market after pricing that could adversely affect investors who purchase in this offering.
A stabilizing bid is a bid for the purchase of shares of common stock on behalf of the underwriter for the purpose of fixing or maintaining the price of the common stock. A syndicate covering transaction is the bid for or the purchase of shares of common stock on behalf of the underwriter to reduce a short position incurred by the underwriter in connection with the offering. Similar to other purchase transactions, the underwriter’s purchases to cover the syndicate short sales may have the effect of raising or maintaining the market price of our common stock or preventing or retarding a decline in the market price of our common stock. As a result, the price of our common stock may be higher than the price that might otherwise exist in the open market. A penalty bid is an arrangement permitting the underwriter to reclaim the selling concession otherwise accruing to a syndicate member in connection with the offering if the common stock originally sold by such syndicate member is purchased in a syndicate covering transaction and therefore have not been effectively placed by such syndicate member.
Neither we, the selling stockholder nor the underwriter make any representation or prediction as to the direction or magnitude of any effect that the transactions described above may have on the price of our common stock. The underwriter is not obligated to engage in these activities and, if commenced, any of the activities may be discontinued at any time.
The underwriter may also engage in passive market making transactions in our common stock on NASDAQ in accordance with Rule 103 of Regulation M during a period before the commencement of offers or sales of shares of our common stock in this offering and extending through the completion of distribution. A passive market maker must display its bid at a price not in excess of the highest independent bid of that security. However, if all independent bids are lowered below the passive market maker’s bid, that bid must then be lowered when specified purchase limits are exceeded.
Electronic Distribution
In connection with the offering, the underwriter or securities dealers may distribute prospectuses by electronic means, such as e-mail.
Other Relationships
The underwriter and certain of its affiliates are full service financial institutions engaged in various activities, which may include securities trading, commercial and investment banking, financial advisory, investment management, investment research,
S-12
principal investment, hedging, financing and brokerage activities. The underwriter and certain of its affiliates may in the future engage in investment banking and other commercial dealings in the ordinary course of business with us and our affiliates, for which it may in the future receive customary fees, commissions and expenses.
In addition, in the ordinary course of its business activities, the underwriter and its affiliates may make or hold a broad array of investments and actively trade debt and equity securities (or related derivative securities) and financial instruments (including bank loans) for its own account and for the accounts of their customers. Such investments and securities activities may involve securities and/or instruments of ours or our affiliates. The underwriter and its affiliates may also make investment recommendations and/or publish or express independent research views in respect of such securities or financial instruments and may hold, or recommend to clients that they acquire, long and/or short positions in such securities and instruments.
Selling Restrictions
Notice to Prospective Investors in the European Economic Area
In relation to each Member State of the European Economic Area which has implemented the Prospectus Directive (each, a “Relevant Member State”), with effect from and including the date on which the Prospectus Directive is implemented in that Relevant Member State, no offer of shares may be made to the public in that Relevant Member State other than:
(a) |
to any legal entity which is a qualified investor as defined in the Prospectus Directive; |
(b) |
to fewer than 150 natural or legal persons (other than qualified investors as defined in the Prospectus Directive), as permitted under the Prospectus Directive, subject to obtaining the prior consent of the underwriter; or |
(c) |
in any other circumstances falling within Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, |
provided that no such offer of shares shall require the Company or the underwriter to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive or supplement a prospectus pursuant to Article 16 of the Prospectus Directive.
Each person in a Relevant Member State who initially acquires any shares or to whom any offer is made will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that it is a “qualified investor” within the meaning of the law in that Relevant Member State implementing Article 2(1)(e) of the Prospectus Directive. In the case of any shares being offered to a financial intermediary as that term is used in Article 3(2) of the Prospectus Directive, each such financial intermediary will be deemed to have represented, acknowledged and agreed that the shares acquired by it in the offer have not been acquired on a non-discretionary basis on behalf of, nor have they been acquired with a view to their offer or resale to, persons in circumstances which may give rise to an offer of any shares to the public other than their offer or resale in a Relevant Member State to qualified investors as so defined or in circumstances in which the prior consent of the underwriter has been obtained to each such proposed offer or resale.
We, the underwriter and each of our and the underwriter’s affiliates will rely upon the truth and accuracy of the foregoing representations, acknowledgements and agreements.
This prospectus supplement has been prepared on the basis that any offer of shares in any Relevant Member State will be made pursuant to an exemption under the Prospectus Directive from the requirement to publish a prospectus for offers of shares. Accordingly, any person making or intending to make an offer in that Relevant Member State of shares which are the subject of the offering contemplated in this prospectus supplement may only do so in circumstances in which no obligation arises for the Company or the underwriter to publish a prospectus pursuant to Article 3 of the Prospectus Directive in relation to such offer. Neither the Company nor the underwriter have authorized, nor do they authorize, the making of any offer of shares in circumstances in which an obligation arises for the Company or the underwriter to publish a prospectus for such offer.
For the purpose of the above provisions, the expression “an offer to the public” in relation to any shares in any Relevant Member State means the communication in any form and by any means of sufficient information on the terms of the offer and the shares to be offered so as to enable an investor to decide to purchase or subscribe the shares, as the same may be varied in the Relevant Member State by any measure implementing the Prospectus Directive in the Relevant Member State and the expression “Prospectus Directive” means Directive 2003/71/EC (including the 2010 PD Amending Directive, to the extent implemented in
S-13
the Relevant Member States) and includes any relevant implementing measure in the Relevant Member State and the expression “2010 PD Amending Directive” means Directive 2010/73/EU.
MiFID II Product Governance
Any person offering, selling or recommending the shares (a “distributor”) should take into consideration the manufacturers’ target market assessment; however, a distributor subject to MiFID II is responsible for undertaking its own target market assessment in respect of the shares (by either adopting or refining the manufacturers’ target market assessment) and determining appropriate distribution channels.
Notice to Prospective Investors in the United Kingdom
In addition, in the United Kingdom, this document is being distributed only to, and is directed only at, and any offer subsequently made may only be directed at persons who are “qualified investors” (as defined in the Prospectus Directive) (i) who have professional experience in matters relating to investments falling within Article 19(5) of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000 (Financial Promotion) Order 2005, as amended (the “Order”) and/or (ii) who are high net worth companies (or persons to whom it may otherwise be lawfully communicated) falling within Article 49(2)(a) to (d) of the Order (all such persons together being referred to as “relevant persons”) or otherwise in circumstances which have not resulted and will not result in an offer to the public of the shares in the United Kingdom within the meaning of the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.
Any person in the United Kingdom that is not a relevant person should not act or rely on the information included in this document or use it as basis for taking any action. In the United Kingdom, any investment or investment activity that this document relates to may be made or taken exclusively by relevant persons.

ABOUT THIS PROSPECTUS

This prospectus provides you with a general description of the securities the selling stockholder may offer. Each time the selling stockholder offers the securities described in this prospectus, the selling stockholder is required to provide the offeree with this prospectus, and in certain cases, a prospectus supplement.

The occurrence of any of these risks might cause you to lose all or part of your investment in the offered securities.
If the selling stockholder sells all or a portion of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus, it could cause our common stock price to decline.
The sale by the selling stockholder of the shares of our common stock covered by this prospectus could depress the market price for our common stock. Such sales may also make it more difficult for us to sell equity securities in the future at a time and at a price that we deem appropriate to raise funds through future equity offerings of our common stock.

FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
The information in this prospectus, including information in documents incorporated by reference in this prospectus contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 relating to NeoGenomics, Inc., a Nevada corporation and its subsidiaries, NeoGenomics Laboratories, Inc., a Florida corporation (“NeoGenomics Laboratories”), NeoGenomics Bioinformatics Inc., a Florida corporation, and Clarient, Inc., a Delaware corporation and its wholly owned subsidiary, Clarient Diagnostic Services, Inc. (together “Clarient”) (collectively referred to as “we”, “us”, “our”, “NeoGenomics”, or the “Company”), which are subject to the “safe harbor” created by those sections.
These statements concerning our strategy, future operations, future financial position, future revenues, projected costs, prospects and plans and objectives of management. The words “anticipates”, “believes”, “estimates”, “expects”, “intends”, “may”, “plans”, “projects”, “will”, “would” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. We may not actually achieve the plans, intentions or expectations disclosed in our forward-looking statements and you should not place undue reliance on our forward-looking statements. These forward-looking statements involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties that could cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward-looking statements, including, without limitation, the risks set forth under “Risk Factors” herein and in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K as filed with the SEC on March 13, 2018 and any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q or Current Reports on Form 8-K.
Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and the Company undertakes no obligation to update any forward-looking statement or statements to reflect events or circumstances after the date on which such statement is made or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. New factors emerge from time to time and it is not possible for management to predict all of such factors, nor can it assess the impact of each such factor on the business or the extent to which any factor, or combination of factors, may cause actual results to differ materially from those contained in any forward-looking statements.

SELLING STOCKHOLDER
We are registering for resale by the selling stockholder 10,835,145 shares of our common stock. As previously described in reports filed with the SEC, on October 20, 2015, GE Medical Holding AB, a private limited company (privat aktiebolag) organized under the laws of the Kingdom of Sweden (Reg. No. 556648-9315) (“GE Medical”), entered into a Stock Purchase Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”) with us and NeoGenomics Laboratories. Pursuant to the Purchase Agreement, NeoGenomics (through NeoGenomics Laboratories) acquired from GE Medical all of the issued and outstanding shares of common stock of Clarient, Inc. (“Clarient”), a wholly owned subsidiary of GE Medical, for a purchase price consisting of (i) cash consideration of approximately $74.0 million, (ii) 15,000,000 shares of our common stock (“Common Shares”) and (iii) 14,666,667 shares of our Series A convertible preferred stock (“Preferred Shares”) (collectively, the “Transaction”). The Transaction closed on December 30, 2015. As permitted by the Purchase Agreement, GE Medical transferred its right to receive the Common Shares and the Preferred Shares issued in the Transaction to its parent company, GE Medical Systems Information Technologies, Inc., a Wisconsin corporation (“GE InfoTech”).
On December 30, 2015, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and concurrent with the closing of the Transaction, we entered into an Investor Board Rights, Lockup and Standstill Agreement (the “Investor Rights Agreement”) with GE InfoTech and General Electric Company (“General Electric”). Pursuant to the Investor Rights Agreement, GE InfoTech is entitled to appoint a designee to our board of directors (the “Board”), provided that such designee meets the director qualification requirements set forth in the Investor Rights Agreement. Thereafter, for so long as GE InfoTech, General Electric and the subsidiaries of General Electric (collectively, the “GE Parties”) continue to beneficially own in the aggregate at least 10% of our then-outstanding voting stock, GE InfoTech is entitled to designate for nomination one director for election at each annual or special meeting of our stockholders at which directors of the Board are to be elected and at which the seat held by GE InfoTech’s designee is subject to election. Subject to the terms of the Investor Rights Agreement, we are required to support the election of such nominee and GE InfoTech is required to vote all of our voting stock beneficially owned by it in favor of the director slate nominated by management. Stephen Kanovsky is currently the GE Info Tech designee on our Board.
On December 30, 2015, in accordance with the terms of the Purchase Agreement and concurrent with the closing of the Transaction, we and GE InfoTech entered into a Registration Rights Agreement (the “Registration Rights Agreement”). Pursuant to the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement, we are required to file a shelf registration statement for the offer and sale of the Common Shares acquired in the Transaction and any shares of common stock issuable upon conversion of the Preferred Shares. The Registration Rights Agreement also provides GE InfoTech with customary demand and piggyback registration rights with respect to such shares. NeoGenomics is required to pay all registration expenses relating to any shelf, demand or piggyback registration, including the fees and expenses of one counsel for the GE Parties, but not including underwriting fees, discounts or commissions. The Registration Rights Agreement also contains customary cross-indemnification provisions. We are filing the registration statement of which this prospectus is a part in accordance with the terms of the Registration Rights Agreement.
On December 22, 2016, we redeemed directly from GE InfoTech 8,066,667 Preferred Shares at a redemption price of approximately $6.8182 per share. In December 2017, the Company issued 264,000 additional shares of Preferred Stock as a PIK dividend resulting in a balance of 6,864,000 shares outstanding as of December 31, 2017. On June 25, 2018, NeoGenomics redeemed from GE InfoTech the remaining 6,864,000 Preferred Shares at a redemption price of $7.30 per share. Such redemptions and the PIK dividend occurred pursuant to the terms of the Preferred Shares. After the redemption on June 25, 2018, there were no Preferred Shares outstanding. On November 9, 2018, GE InfoTech sold 4,164,855 of the Common Shares at a price per share of $16.75 pursuant to Rule 144 under the Securities Act.
The table below is based on information provided to us by the selling stockholder. The following table sets forth the name of the selling stockholder, the number of shares of our common stock beneficially owned by the selling stockholder as of the date of this prospectus, and the number of shares that may be offered by the selling stockholder pursuant to this prospectus. Beneficial ownership is determined in accordance with the rules of the SEC and includes voting or investment power with respect to our common stock. We do not know when or in what
5
amounts the selling stockholder may sell or otherwise dispose of the shares covered hereby and therefore cannot estimate the number of the shares that will be held by the selling stockholder after completion of the offering. We have, therefore, assumed for the purposes of the following table, that the selling stockholder will sell all of the shares owned beneficially that are covered by this prospectus.
We believe, based on information supplied by the selling stockholder, that the selling stockholder and its affiliates have sole voting and dispositive power with respect to the common stock reported as beneficially owned.

•in the over-the-counter market;
•in transactions otherwise than on these exchanges or systems or in the over-the-counter market; and
•through the writing of options, whether such options are listed on an options exchange or otherwise.
The selling stockholder may use any one or more of the following methods when selling the shares offered hereby:

one or more block trades in which the broker-dealer will attempt to sell such shares as agent or principal of all of such shares held by the selling stockholder; |

In connection with sales of the shares of common stock offered hereby or otherwise, the selling stockholder may enter into hedging transactions with broker-dealers, which may in turn engage in short sales of the shares of common stock offered hereby in the course of hedging in positions they assume. The selling stockholder may also sell shares of common stock offered hereby short, and deliver shares of common stock covered by this prospectus to close out short positions and to return borrowed shares in connection with such short sales. The selling stockholder may also loan or pledge shares of common stock offered hereby to broker-dealers that in turn may sell such shares.

The selling stockholder may pledge or grant a security interest in some or all of the shares of common stock offered hereby and owned by it and, if it defaults in the performance of its secured obligations, the pledgees or secured parties may offer and sell such shares of common stock from time to time pursuant to this prospectus or any amendment to this prospectus under Rule 424(b)(3) or other applicable provision of the Securities Act. The selling stockholder also may transfer and donate the shares of common stock offered hereby in other circumstances, in which case the transferees, donees, pledgees or other successors in interest will be the selling beneficial owners for purposes of this prospectus.
The selling stockholder and any broker-dealer participating in the distribution of the shares of common stock offered hereby may be deemed to be “underwriters” within the meaning of the Securities Act, and any commission paid, or any discounts or concessions allowed to, any such broker-dealer may be deemed to be underwriting commissions or discounts under the Securities Act. At the time a particular offering of the shares of common stock offered hereby is made, a prospectus supplement, if required, will be distributed which will set forth the aggregate amount of shares of common stock being offered and the terms of the offering, including the name or names of any broker-dealers or agents, any discounts, commissions and other terms constituting compensation from the selling stockholder and any discounts, commissions or concessions allowed or re-allowed or paid to broker-dealers.
Under the securities laws of some states, the shares of common stock offered hereby may be sold in such states only through registered or licensed brokers or dealers. In addition, in some states the shares of common stock offered hereby may not be sold unless such shares have been registered or qualified for sale in such state or an exemption from registration or qualification is available and is complied with.
There can be no assurance that the selling stockholder will sell any or all of the shares of common stock registered pursuant to the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part.
The selling stockholder and any other person participating in such distribution will be subject to applicable provisions of the Exchange Act, and the rules and regulations thereunder, including, without limitation, Regulation M of the Exchange Act, which may limit the timing of purchases and sales of any of the shares of common stock offered hereby by the selling stockholder and any other participating person. Regulation M may also restrict the ability of any person engaged in the distribution of the shares of common stock offered hereby to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock offered hereby. All of the foregoing may affect the marketability of the shares of common stock offered hereby and the ability of any person or entity to engage in market-making activities with respect to the shares of common stock offered hereby.
We will pay all expenses of the registration of the shares of common stock pursuant to the registration rights agreement, estimated to be $143,503 in total, including, without limitation, SEC filing fees and expenses of compliance with state securities or “blue sky” laws; provided, however, that the selling stockholder will pay all underwriting discounts and selling commissions, if any. We will indemnify the selling stockholder against liabilities, including some liabilities under the Securities Act, in accordance with the registration rights agreement, or the selling stockholder will be entitled to contribution. We may be indemnified by the selling stockholder against civil liabilities, including liabilities under the Securities Act, that may arise from any written information furnished to us by the selling stockholder specifically for use in this prospectus, in accordance with the related registration rights agreement, or we may be entitled to contribution.
Once sold under the registration statement of which this prospectus forms a part, the shares of common stock offered hereby will be freely tradable in the hands of persons other than our affiliates.
